Okuma Azores Spinning Reels
Okuma Azores Spinning Reels are the result of a multi-year engineering review that achieves new levels of strength and stability. Azores began with proven power features including die-cast aluminum body, side plate and rotor, machine cut pinion gear and the Okuma Dual Force Drag system that churns out up to 44-pounds of max drag. But within the interior is where Azores gains massive separation from competitors. Dual anti-reverse systems, massive oversized spool shaft and grease-packed stainless steel bearings deliver incredible strength while the 3-piece carbon fiber Mechanical Stabilization System stops electrolysis in its tracks.
Azores Saltwater Reels Feature:
- DFD: Precision Dual Force Drag System
- Precision click drag adjustment for more precise drag settings
- Multi-disc, Carbonite and felt drag washers for DFD
- 6HPB + 1RB corrosion-resistant stainless steel bearings
- Quick-Set anti-reverse roller bearing plus ratchet system
- Dual anti-reverse systems for maximum security for sizes 55 to 90
- Single anti-reverse systems for Z-40s models
- Precision machine cut brass pinion gear
- CRC: Corrosion-resistant coating process
- HDGII: Corrosion-resistant, high density gearing
- ALC: Rigid die-cast aluminum body, side plate and rotor
- MSS: carbon Mechanical Stabilizing System
- Machined aluminum, 2-tone anodized spool with LCS lip
- Machined aluminum handle arm for strength
- Hydro Block water tight drag seal
- Heavy duty, solid aluminum bail wire
- Azores spinning reels are backed by a 1-year warranty
